3 tiny shelves
 
Happy cinco de mayo! Unfortunately this holiday is just not the event it was at home (and if I hadn't thought about it the other day and decided we would cook Mexican food to celebrate than it would probably have passed unnoticed). Fortunately Coles, the Australian grocery store, has a few small shelves at the end of one aisle that has mexican food where we found tortillas, refried beans and seasoning mixes for burritos and guacamole. Then, after our test today, Lisa and I made burritos complete with tomato, lettuce, onion, sour cream, tasty cheese, avocado, salsa and real beef (no kangaroo for a while since beef was on sale and we bought like 4 pounds of it). Cindy also stopped by since we had run into her just before our class. It was wonderful having mexican food again, as I haven't really had any since leaving home and I was starting to miss it. Ryan contributed with the Spanish music and I pretended my bucket hat was a sombrero. To finish off the evening we had some Milo, which is somewhat like NesQuik but doesn't dissolve the same way and stays a bit crunchy. Different, yes and a little weird, but while it doesn't match up in cold milk, I'm sure it would do well as an ice cream topping or dissolved in a cup or hot milk.
